Could be better
The guide was trying his best with English but had a bit of difficulty. Maybe because he was young? Lack of experience?

Buildings were poorly lit
We were disappointed with the lighting of the buildings as compared to Viator’s pictures with only 2 stops, there was little opportunity to take pictures of attractions not at these stops eg fountains & the triumphal arch. The guide’s knowledge was good and his approach was friendly. The guide was also very prompt with the pickup time.

Hi Dale, Thanks a lot. We do appreciate you writing a review. It's nice to hear you were happy with the services offered by our guide. As this is a small group tour, we encourage our clients to tell the guide if they have any specific requirements regarding stops for pictures. Unfortunately, there is not much we can do regarding the lighting of the buildings. This tour is also great when Bucharest is decorated with many Christmas lights during the festive period. Thanks again and have a nice day, Aurora

Great night tour
My daughter and I enjoyed a great two-hour tour of the most famous and historic places in Bucharest with the Trip Maker Tour Company. Our tour guide Riga had a great knowledge of the past and the more recent history of his homeland, particularly the events surrounding the fall of communism in the late 1980s which he lived through (ask him to repeat the 'banana' story and the story of the execution of the dictator on Christmas day!). His great sense of humour and quick wit made the tour all the more enjoyable. I can highly recommend this night tour which we did on our first night in the city, and which gave us a far greater sense of place and historical context as we got up to other adventures in the days that followed. Thank you Trip Maker. Thank you Mr Riga!
